          This post follows the previous

          to display individual data points using <u>jitter</u>. It's a good
          practice: basic boxplots hide features like the

                    Here, the trick is just to add a layer of points by

                  <li>
                    To avoid circles overlap, jittering is used. Basically,
                    every point is shifted on the X axis randomly, using
                    <code>Math.random()</code>
